Like that idea very much. Used to work parttime at a Hallmark shop, one of the ladies there made and framed doilies with cards that contained mushy sentimental stuff designed to bring the receiver to tears. Always worked

If you don't want to make your own I see them all the time at estate sales. Generally,they are not expensive and often over looked. We sometimes bundle small gifts in them w/ ribbons. I like the framed idea. Wouldn't it be nice with calligraphy w/ a babies birthdate or something special.

Thanks for the neat ideas ladies and for the link miss_thrifty! I have some of my grandmothers who passed when I was 9 years old. I will definitely be doing something with them now rather than them sitting in a linen cupboard.
